Niang welcomes ‘twin’ Balotelli to AC Milan

AC Milan bad boy Mbaye Niang has welcomed fellow controversial figure Mario Balotelli to the club, via Twitter.

The Azzurri international signed for a fee in the region of €20m from Manchester City on a four-year deal and is training with his new teammates this afternoon.

He wrote on Twitter: “Welcome to SuperMario, my twin.”

He already posed for a picture with the 22-year-old and Stephan El Shaarawy, with whom the trio could be Massimiliano Allegri’s chosen strikeforce.
